A Nerd About Town
Q: How did you spend your Saturday, Mike D.?
A: Funny you ask, I was going to blog about it.
1. Interviewing a promising potential roommate. Cleaning to Eponymous before she arrived — Driver 8 stuck in my head ever since.
2. Going to a panel on the future of the short story from the Pen World Voices Festival. Hate to say it, but having old, deaf people speaking in their third language is not conducive to panel discussions.
3. Watching Jessica Lange in a beautiful one-woman theater piece centered around a Catalan novel recommended by one of my favorite international literature resources.
4. Watching the second half of a disappointing Game 7. (Get Bill Simmons’s take on Game 6, one of the five greatest games of the past 20 years, here. The middle few paragraphs about this game as a defense of being a sports fan are worth your time.)
No wonder Rajon Rondo can’t shoot. Look at that form!
